Conserver la couleur des spécimens botaniques en fluide : Evaluation de méthodes de préservation de la chlorophylle et des tannins

Latty, Joane

Mémoire de master : Haute Ecole Arc Conservation-Restauration, 2021.

This master thesis is part of the LIQUOR project, of the cultural heritage conservation research unit of the University of Applied Science Arc in Neuchâtel (Switzerland). This project focuses on the conservation of plants in fluid in the context of heritage, to establish recommendations in this regard. The present work deals more specifically with the question of the discoloration of the green...

Aerobically stable and substitutionally labile α-diimine rhenium dicarbonyl complexes

Schindler, Kevin ; Crochet, Aurélien ; Zobi, Fabio

In: RSC Advances, 2021, vol. 11, p. 7511-7520

New synthetic routes to aerobically stable and substitutionally labile α-diimine rhenium(I) dicarbonyl complexes are described. The molecules are prepared in high yield from the cis–cis–trans-[Re(CO)2(tBu2bpy)Br2]− anion (2, where tBu2bpy is 4,4′- di-tert-butyl-2,2′-bipyridine), which can be isolated from the one electron reduction of the corresponding 17-electron complex (1)....

Inverting structures: from micelles via emulsions to internally self-assembled water and oil continuous nanocarriers

Glatter, Otto ; Salentinig, Stefan

In: Current Opinion in Colloid & Interface Science, 2020, vol. 49, p. 82–93

Fluid-like colloidal structures are key components in nature's own functional materials and important for various applications. For instance, self-assembled structures are formed spontaneously by amphiphilic molecules in solvent, tailored by directional noncovalent intermolecular forces. These structures form the framework of cells defining their geometry and microenvironments for chemical...

Tailor-made functional polymers for energy storage and environmental applications

Coskun, Ali

In: CHIMIA International Journal for Chemistry, 2020, vol. 74, no. 9, p. 667–673

CO2 emissions into the atmosphere account for the majority of environmental challenges and its global impact in the form of climate change is well-documented. Accordingly, the development of new materials approaches to capture and convert CO2 into value-added products is essential. Whereas the increased availability of renewable energy is curbing our reliance on fossil fuels and decreasing...

Bimetallic salen-based compounds and their potential applications

Finelli, Alba ; Abram, Sarah-Luise ; Hérault, Nelly ; Crochet, Aurélien ; Fromm, Katharina M.

In: Crystal Growth & Design, 2020, vol. 20, no. 8, p. 4945–4958

The new bimetallic coordination compounds [LNiAg(NO3)], [LCuMn(NO3)2], [LCuCu(NO3)2], [LCuZn(NO3)2], and [{LCuBi(NO3)3}(ACN)] have been synthesized from a salen-type ligand L containing two distinct coordination sites to accommodate (different) metal ions M1 and M2. In the solid state, the formation of 1:1 compounds (LCu:M2) is always observed, but interactions between the compounds lead to ...

Indirect solvent assisted tautomerism in 4-substituted phthalimide 2-hydroxy-Schiff bases

Yordanov, Dancho ; Deneva, Vera ; Georgiev, Anton ; Crochet, Aurélien ; Fromm, Katharina M. ; Antonova, Liudmil

In: Spectrochimica Acta Part A: Molecular and Biomolecular Spectroscopy, 2020, vol. 237, p. 118416

The paper presents the synthesis and characterization of two 4-substituted phthalimide 2-hydroxy-Schiff bases containing salicylic (4) and 2-hydroxy-1-naphthyl (5) moieties. The structural differences of 2-hydroxyaryl substituents, resulting in different enol/keto tautomeric behaviour, depending on the solvent environment were studied by absorption UV–Vis spectroscopy. Compound 5 is...

Tautomerism and self-association in the solution of new pinene-bipyridine and pinene-phenanthroline derivatives

Solea, Atena B. ; Cornu, Ivan ; Deneva, Vera ; Crochet, Aurélien ; Fromm, Katharina M. ; Antonov, Liudmil ; Allemann, Christophe ; Mamula, Olimpia

In: Molecules, 2020, vol. 25, no. 2, p. 298

Two novel pinene-type ligands have been synthesized and their tautomeric and self- associating behavior studied in solution and in the solid state. The first ligand, an acetylated derivative of 5,6-pinene-bipyridine, displays keto-enol tautomerism in solution. This tautomeric equilibrium was studied by NMR and UV-Vis spectroscopy in various solvents, and the results were compared with the ones...
